Plant-based Akamaru 1.0

Most helpful reviews

Tasted really good. Soy based soup with a dollop of porcini mushroom oil and a

little bit of chilli. You have a choice soft, medium, or hard noodle. Went for the medium texture. It’s slightly springy like wantan noodle. Also comes with two slices of a plant based ham

Mind blown by the tonkotsu-like broth! I added an extra portion of spring onions which

helped to cut through the rich broth. It was really tasty and I finished every drop!

The eggless noodles had a good bite while the mock chashu was just ok with a texture similar to ham.

Overall, I really enjoyed the dish and hope it will be a permanent dish on the menu!

Finally tried Ippudo’s #plantbased #ramen!!! It was delicious ☺️ I did end up adding some

chili in to make it spicier (I like my ramen spicy 🌶).

Will definitely order it again!

I've long been a fan of Ippudo's Akamaru Shinaji, so I was super excited to

try this fully plant-based, vegan-friendly option. It's a very good version of Ippudo's classic dish - I'm especially a fan of the beautifully creamy soup, which mimics the thick umaminess of the original soup base without the tonkatsu or the meat. Wonderfully savoury, and comforting too. The plant-based chashu was decent too! Would definitely come back again, and I hope this stays on Ippudo's menu indefinitely! #abillionturns3

Saw this all over my feed and had to try it out! It was super

yummy, I like the Ippudo noodles a lot and the broth was really flavourful! So nice to see this option, I hope it becomes a mainstay :) #abillionturns3

SG needs more vegan ramen options!! Was v excited to try this and the thick

& creamy soymilk-based soup didnt disappoint! It came complete with vegan chashu which even had strips of fat altho it tasted somewhat like normal soy meat except more tender. I wouldnt hv mind if they didnt try to completely replicate tonkotsu ramen & replaced the chashu w some tofu & veggies, maybe it would hv been cheaper 🤣 (this was $16.85++). This was so similar to normal ramen that i could taste the same alkaline flavour towards the end of the bowl which i rmb from previous experiences (not sure if its just me 😅). Highly recommended to give a try / support before its taken off the menu at the end of Jun! Also, v commendable that a staff came over to get my feedback after the meal!

Good try Ippudo! For me the taste is around 75% close the original akamaru i

used to love. But if you're not tasting the original akamaru side by side you wouldn't know any difference.

The chashu could be better tho. I was looking for a bit charring for the chashu.

OH MAN. The broth is so tasty and the whole wheat noodles really add another

dimension to it too. 😍 The mix of oils make this bowl of ramen so fragrant too. 💕

Thick broth was yummy and my friends said it was tastier than the real tonkotsu

soup.
I hope they'll keep this on the regular menu!

Agree w the rest of the reviews here: fantastic rich salty broth but the vegan

meat is very underwhelming.
